Hi All, I found a PC Specialist subreddit - not large, less than a thousand members. Link I was curious if this was run in tandem with the forum, or if any forum mods posted there or had started it. It states clearly that it is not a channel for support but uses the PCS logo etc.

I've just watched 'Clark', a Netflix series about the Stockholm syndrome guy. Not at all what I was expecting but really great. More of a funny take on an amazing life than a historically detailed biography. Would recommend.

Free weekend/66% off for State of Decay 2 on Steam: Juggernaut edition

As a Maths lecturer, our undergrads are rarely doing anything heavyweight enough to get significant benefit from this (I can't say that for sure, for you - Uni courses are not like A levels, curriculums vary a lot). If they do, it tends to be in final year/masters machine-learning modules or...

Took me a while to compress the images enough, but this is running on stock settings, no tweaks at all

Get the cheapest and expand with SD. Rationally, that's what I would have done, but at the time I'd had a pint or two and it was only a £5 deposit, so...

I got lucky and had the time to be online at the steam launch - it skipped a few times and dumped me out of the queue, but I was able to complete a reservation a few minutes after the start. Was originally Q1, got bumped to Q2 and then used the Reddit spreadsheet to guestimate my delivery (was...

Mine has finally arrived and I'm starting to explore how much of my Steam library is compatible. I'll hold off on posting pics/vids yet until I get some steer from a mod - it is technically a none-PCS PC, even if handhelds are not really in competition with anything PCS sells. I got the 512GB...

Just to rule out the obvious, do your other devices get good connection to the 5GHz signal when in the same location as the PC? 2.4GHz is slower but better able to penetrate barriers like thick walls.

Smoove & Turrel are on that label, the Allergies, too. Both worth checking out and both are the vol 2 mix

This is great, thanks, and it seems to be valid until the 24th Feb (including the ogre bonus pack), in case anyone is holding off for the initial patches to hit and fix the early issues.

A week before Total War Warhammer 3 drops, too, this is going to murder my internet, let alone my free time. Not a bad problem to have...

I'm in now way anything like tech support, but could I ask a question about this? What was the first thing to go wrong? You mention the the case peeling away from the screen after a year of use - did you contact PCS about this? Is it something they fixed? It strikes me that, if not, it could...

I love all these shows - Doom patrol is still my number one superhero series, though!

Dammit, July is too soon, now I need to desperately find some fault with my perfectly fine PC in order to justify an upgrade. May have to try and learn indoor hammer-juggling again.

It would still be good to know what monitor you are pairing it with and what games you play. Some e.g. turn based tactical games are CPU heavy, some e.g. open world 1st person games are GPU heavy. Either way, just to warn you, the bottom end of your budget is where you'd be better off with a...

Also, to add to the general nightmare of Christmas delivery backlogs, Brexit and the pandemic absences delaying everything, (and no idea if this applies to you, but it caught me out this week) Scotland had an extra bank holiday we didn't get in England. I had an Amazon delivery guaranteed for...

It could be that all is fine and it will arrive today. Shipping logistics don't always get updated in real time and it isn't late yet. If not, try to be pragmatic - I don't know where you live but my council has paused some rubbish collections and our busses are going to be Saturday service...

Merry Christmas to all of you!

You are a real star, thank you for this and I hope you have an awesome Christmas. I certainly will - this pressie makes me isolation-proof!
